      I grew up watching him on his comedy show & the Grand Ole Opera.
      My fam are Cajun & from Louisiana & south TX & its huge, hundreds. Many generations of musicians. I spent w/my brothers & cousins, Aunts & Uncles growing up in honky tonks where if they weren't the band, they were cutting a rug!! Back when it was legal. Early 60"s thru 70's for me. My Mom played fiddle, steel guitar, 6 string, & accordion!! All my immediate fam played instruments & sang. One brother toured alot & opened for many A-list musicans.
      We loved your cousin. He was a master guitarist, so funny & seemed like a really great guy!!! Thanks for sharing!!

    Mr Clark was one of my Dad's fishing buddies. In the 60s When Mr Clark played the Southern Maryland Circuit, He would always fish out of Benedict Md with my Dad and friends. They would rent a little john boat with a little outboard and have blast catching Blue. When I was little I woke up at 5 am because they were all laughing, telling jokes while stringing up the rods. I had no idea who he was till I saw him again years later on the TV show He-Haw. Then my Dad, also named Roy told me the story. RIP Dad. And Roy Clark.

    i'm an old, crusty, retired electrician. i probably have more years pulling wire than Da Real Adogg has breathing. but i have noticed a lot of "first time hearing..." videos lately of Roy Clark, Glen Campbell and even one of Queen. And it's nice to know that talent, no matter how old the performers are, is still appreciated.

    Roy Clark was a great entertainer, humble man & super talented. He was both a singer & musician. His guitar & banjo playing are legendary. A lot of musicians & artists today could learn a lot from his style & technique. Glen Campbell was also an underrated guitarist. But these men paved the way for a lot of musicians today.

    Maleguena is typically played on an acoustic guitar and very few American musicians have even attempted to play it. Rot Clark is the only artist I've ever seen play it on an electric guitar. He was simply amazing with anything with strings and had a comedic side that was absolutely charming.

    • @jeffk9658

    Roy Clark has a "Ghost Riders in the Sky" video that he absolutely shreds on a 12 string. There are also clips of him and Glen Campbell playing duets. One more suggestion would be Roy and his cousin, Buck Trent playing "Dueling Banjos". And yes, Roy is just as good on banjo as he is on guitar. He could also play fiddle and most other stringed instruments.

    • @rogermurry740
      @rogermurry740 2 роки тому +14

      I saw Roy Clark on the Tonight Show as a kid. He shredded Ghost Riders in the Sky. When he was done, he sat next to Johnny Carson. Johnny said ‘I don’t know how many people in the audience noticed this. You broke a string half way through, didn’t you?’ Roy held up his guitar and a broken string flapped in the breeze. Nobody could tell. I wish I could find that video again...

    My grandfather and Roy were friends before my grandfather passed. They belonged to the same Masonic Lodge in Oklahoma for years. I had the privilege as a kid to sit with him and my grandfather at many of the social gatherings put on for families of the lodge members. You would never have known, even then, that he was a celebrity. He was just a regular Joe to everyone else there. So humble and kind. And of course a very, very talented man.

    Roy Clark does the same song on an acoustic and it's fantastic. Acoustic guitar's don't forgive mistakes and he plays it perfectly. Watch him do it on an episode of The Odd Couple. Wow! Also, Charo plays this song pretty good too on her acoustic.

    • @deborahhuckstep2379
      @deborahhuckstep2379 2 роки тому +6

      Absolutely! Roy, in that episode, made that acoustic guitar ring like a bell and sing with a joy that was wondrous to watch. You can see the exact moment when Jack Klugman and Tony Randall go from their characters to stunned and respectful along with the studio audience. When Tony flops back, that's a genuine reaction to the performance....plus his expression too.

      I can play anything with strings... Roy seems like the reason strings were invented. The man was a musician in the truest sense. He was a master on his instrument, he was respectful to all work, he was happy doing it and made people happy when he did. My uncle, before he was killed in Vietnam was just making a big name in Tennessee, he played with and was friendly with the Hee Haw cast, lots of the Grand Ole Opry regulars, Roy, String Bean, Jerry Reed, there was close to 3000 people at his funeral. My father and grandfather were also pickers, loved and respected Roy very much.

    First off, kudos to you for looking past current music to that of the past; there is so much ‘gold’ out there from the past.
    This was back in the day when you didn’t have autotune or ways to correct timing etc., you either triumphed or fell on your face especially in a live performance. Roy Clark was looked upon as a guitar virtuoso; there are many performances where he was clowning around but the guitar work was both serious and stunning. Again, thanks for having an open mind a giving respect when it’s truly due…

He was a good singer, and most of his most impressive work was when he was goofing around, making fun of himself with goofy faces! There's a whole rabbit hole of his work you need to check out, especially if you watch his duets with other banjo players!

    It fills my heart with happiness that you young people are discovering and now featuring the likes of Roy Clark. At the height of his success, he was invited onto a show called The Odd Couple which at the time was one of the top rated TV shows in the country. He was also a featured guitarist and invited to play at Carnegie Hall. It is true that Roy along with Glenn Campbell were really guitarist. They also looked up to a gentleman by the name of Chet Atkins. You want to have some fun one night you may or may not have already done so if you want to hear a voice that'll blow your mind listen to Jay and the Americans "Car Mia" or "This Magic Moment".

    My mom and aunt both loved Roy and had several albums featuring him as well as watching him on "Hee-Haw". His guitar work is often overlooked by his banjo playing (which he seems to be slightly more renowned for.
    In the 90's I met him at a guitar store and seemed to be the only person who recognized him so I got a few minutes to chat with the master. He gave me some advice and tips to improve my own playing.
    I was dumbfounded.

    To my discredit, I never knew about Roy Clark until around the time he died (had never been a country fan). I came to find out that the guy is a frigging legend, who could melt anything with strings. And he gave so many musicians a start. He was a gentleman and had no equal as a musician. Similar to Glen Campbell (another legend), who I also didn't know a lot about until more recently. The rocker Alice Cooper in an interview a few years ago said Campbell (who was a friend of his) was one of the Top 5 guitar players in the world. Both these men were way ahead of their time, on a 6 string or 12 string. Now I've watched a number of both their performances. I sit there with my mouth open, speechless, wondering how they are doing it.

    I’ve had the honor of meeting Roy on several occasions at his golf tournament in Oklahoma. The song is pronounce Mal-uh-gwania. It’s usually played by marching bands. I was a member of the Pride of Oklahoma Marching band and we played it. It’s a lot of fun and loud!

    • @stepanova8

      Marching bands may play it... but it is actually usually played on a classical guitar. You have the pronunciation in correct... as it is the name of a Spanish dance that is similar to a fandango. Ma-la-gena is closer.
      Roy Clark does a fantastic job with a flat pick and an electric guitar! Absolutely amazing! My favorite rendition of the song is by Charo. it's a masterclass in technique combined with passion.

    Roy Clark was an amazing musician. This was one of us his signature songs, that he did several times. He had several great songs, I'd suggest:
    12th Street Rag
    Duelin' Banjos
    Under the Double Eagle
    Folsom Prison Blues (duet with Johnny Cash)
    For singing:
    Yesterday When I was Young
    Thank God and Greyhound
    Probably his two biggest hits.
    Finally I'd like to second the suggestion that you check out Glen Campbell's guitar skills. His version of the "William Tell Overture" is amazing. He played it on both an acoustic and a 12 string electric, either is mind blowing.

He had a special guuest with him: Suzi Quatro, who was equally Brilliant - but i'll never forget the first time (from a short distance away in 1981 at Roy's Travelling Music Show) i saw him play and i mean really 'play' that guitar ...

    I worked with "Roy" for 2 years and he loved the story above because he knew how it REALLY happened as he was told by "Eric Clapton" himself. This quote came from the 1969-1973 timeframe. Eric was asked by an interviewer, "what does it feel like to be the greatest guitar player in the world"? Eric responded, "I wouldn't know, you need to ask "Billy Gibbons" (guitarist for ZZ Top) because he is the best guitar player I have ever met! Billy was just starting up the R&R ladder at that time but was well-known for his fantastic guitar work even before he was famous. This "quote" has been applied many times to various artists over the decades with much validity. My answer would be, who is the best guitarist in the world? Hands down, FRANK ZAPPA.
